Edderton () is a village near Tain, lying on the shores of the Dornoch Firth, Easter Ross and is in the Highland council area of Scotland. It has approximately 388 inhabitants. It is the location of the Balblair Distillery, and of the Edderton Cross Slab, a Class III Pictish stone, which lies in the old churchyard of the village. A quarter of a mile outside the town lies another stone, the Clach Biorach, a Class I Pictish stone. The former Ardmore House was a home of the chiefs of clan Ross.

The distillery and village were served by the Inverness and Aberdeen Junction Railway from 1864 until Edderton railway station closed in 1960.
